An experimental evaluation of a passive anti-roll tank system

Creator:: Plank, William Sanford
Abstract:: The effectiveness of the passive anti-roll tank system aboard the R/V YAQUINA was determined. Measurements of ship roll, effective waveslope and tank water transfer were analyzed using a systems analysis technique. Time series of the inputs and outputs of the ship/tank system and of the tank itself were processed using...

Initial study of kiln drying clear Douglas fir planks

Creator:: Stillwell, H. D. and Oregon Forest Products Laboratory
Abstract:: Checking was influenced b drying conditions. This influence was greatest before average moisture content reached 20 per cent, but tension in surface layers caused checking even below this point. Neither high initial dry-bulb temperature nor initial conditions of high equilibrium moisture content were conducive to checking. High temperature and high...

Distribution of suspended matter in the Panama basin

Creator:: Plank, William S., Zaneveld, J. Ronald, and Pak, Hasong
Abstract:: The distribution of suspended matter in the Panama basin was determined by means of light scattering and Coulter counter measurements on water samples collected at 50 hydrographic stations. The observed distribution indicates three probable sources of suspended matter: (1) the surface waters throughout the basin; (2) erosion and runoff from...

Contribution of Calcium Oxalate to Soil-Exchangeable Calcium

Creator:: Dauer, Jenny M. and Perakis, Steven S.
Abstract:: Acid deposition and repeated biomass harvest have decreased soil calcium (Ca) availability in many temperate forests worldwide, yet existing methods for assessing available soil Ca do not fully characterize soil Ca forms. To account for discrepancies in ecosystem Ca budgets, it has been hypothesized that the highly insoluble biomineral Ca...
